Conservation strategies

This publication aims to provide the data, theory, and predictions for the potential long-term outcome of a biodiversity conservation programme at a mining site. The Rio Tinto ilmenite mine in southeastern Madagascar, run by QIT Madagascar Minerals (Rio Tinto QMM), has been chosen as a pilot site to test the tools designed to achieve and quantify net positive impact (NPI) on biodiversity.

This publication presents innovative ways that have been used to influence policy processes, from community pressure groups through elected and unelected leaders, to scientific discourse at the levels of directors of economic planning and conservation. The book analyzes experiences from a variety of conservation interventions by IUCN and other agencies, primarily in Eastern Africa, and challenges the notion of policymaking as a cyclical process.

Este documento destaca brevemente algunos de los principales impactos e influencias que las resoluciones han tenido en la conservación.

Le présent document souligne brièvement certains des effets et influences majeurs de ces résolutions sur la conservation de la nature.

This paper briefly highlights some of the major impacts and influences that these resolutions have had on conservation. It is not meant to be comprehensive, but rather to focus attention on some of the most significant issues that the IUCN Membership has addressed, working together with IUCN's six Commissions (on Species, Protected Areas, Environmental Law, Ecosystem Management, Communications and Education, and Environmental, Economic and Social Policy) and supported by IUCN's Secretariat.

This publication aims to further raise awareness about the value of transboundary conservation, highlighting the many benefits transboundary cooperation generates, while not neglecting the challenges and problems parties encounter when they engage in transboundary initiatives.

Cette étude examine les coûts de conservation et la valeur des avantages liés à la biodiversité pour la zone couverte par le projet QIT Madagascar Minerals (QMM) et ses alentours, mettant particulièrement l'accent sur le complexe forestier de Tsitongambarika (TGK).

Este estudio analiza los costos de la conservación y el valor de los beneficios asociados con la biodiversidad en y alrededor del área del proyecto QIT Madagascar Minerals (QMM), con especial atención al bosque Tsitongambarika (TGK). El objetivo es cuantificar y valorar los cambios en los servicios ambientales resultantes de las intervenciones que se apartan de lo acostumbrado en TGK, es decir, la deforestación y degradación ambiental, a favor de alguna forma de conservación forestal.

This study examines the costs of conservation and the value of benefits associated with biodiversity around the QIT Madagascar Minerals (QMM) project area, with a focus on the Tsitongambarika (TGK) forest complex. The aim is to quantify and value changes in ecosystem services resulting from interventions that deviate from 'business as usual' in TGK, i.e. projected continued deforestation and ecosystem degradation, in favour of some form of forest conservation.
